Woofun AI reports that NEAR Protocol’s mainnet has upgraded to version 2.13, implementing the FIPS-204 (ML-DSA) post-quantum signing scheme certified by NIST. This deployment enables users to utilize quantum-resistant algorithms, positioning NEAR among the first L1 blockchains to operate such solutions in production. The update also introduces Dynamic Resharding, which automatically splits shards when size thresholds are met without manual voting, completing the process in approximately 1.5 epochs to support scaling for NEAR Intents and near.com.
